After a long year of hard work, the festive season is finally upon us. Whether you’re heading to a tropical paradise, embracing the winter wonderland of the Swiss Alps, or embarking on a cultural journey across Europe, your holiday should be all about relaxation and adventure—not the stress of managing foreign currency.
Travelex South Africa ensures that your travel plans are smooth, secure, and convenient, giving you the peace of mind to immerse yourself fully in the joy of your well-deserved break.
“With Travelex South Africa’s easy-to-use online currency exchange, travellers can skip the hassle of last-minute airport exchanges or confusing fee structures. Simply email the Travelex branch closest to you and order your currency in advance, once done you can go to the Travelex branch for pick-up. To ensure a smooth experience at our branches or airports, we encourage travellers to familiarise themselves with the South African Reserve Bank (SARB) and Financial Intelligence Centre Act (FICA) requirements. Understanding these regulations in advance can help prevent delays when collecting your currency. Detailed information is available on our website at www.travelex.co.za/fica/. This option provides a straightforward solution to secure your travel money before departure, so when you arrive at your destination, you’re ready to explore, shop, and enjoy without delay”, says Marlize Van Der Schyff, Finance & IT Director at Travelex.
